Here is another Microsoft problem. I got an MS Wireless Optical mouse blue
and am running it with Windows XP Pro. The problem is that I have the
pointer speed adjusted to MAXIMUM and I still run out of mousepad trying to
move it around the screen. A friend has an opposite problem in that he has
his mouse (a different mouse type) adjusted to MINIMUM speed and it still
flies across the screen! I downloaded and installed the very latest
Microsoft Intellimouse software but it made no difference. Any ideas of how
to modify the speed - through the registry perhaps?
A note for others who may be interested in the wireless mouse - I like mine
very much but my daughter wanted one too. Now my mouse sometimes controls
her cursor, and her mouse sometimes causes mine to become sluggish
(different from the speed problem I refer to above). I can change the
channels on my mouse and it helps, but there is still some interference. The
moral is "don't have more than one wireless mouse in the house!"
